Shimano Women's RC5W Road Shoes 2020

Shimano Women’s RC5W Road Shoes

Stiff, lightweight and efficient, the Shimano Women’s RC5W Road Shoes may come with a mid-range price tag but they don’t compromise on performance or comfort.

Suited for both your regular training sessions and your weekend races the shoe borrows features from Shimano’s premium competition shoes including the Dynalast design. This system ensures a close, fit for the maximum in stability and comfort. The unique Dynalast system also produces more efficient pedal stroke helping to reduce fatigue over long distances. Additionally, the micro-adjustable Boa L6 makes it quick and easy to create the perfect custom fit which can be altered in seconds.  

Establishing a miraculous lightweight and durable feel the shoe utilises synthetic leather on its upper and lower design. This material is both rugged, helping to keep out the elements, and buoyant making every turn of the pedal as effortless as possible.

At the beating heart of the shoe is its lightweight carbon fibre reinforced nylon composite sole which really allows you to pump the power. The sole is rated 8 out of 12 for stiffness which expertly balances comfort and power transfer. The streamlined sole is slim and provides a low stack height which keeps your foot close to the pedals for a powerful, smooth and natural pedal stroke.
